For Whirlpool Outer Tub (Housing) (Part Number: OEM17914131)

Hello Jman, Unfortunately to replace the bearings on the tub of your unit you will have to replace the outer tub W10772617. The manufacturer does not have a bearing kit for this unit. Because the bearings are pressed in the outer tub would have to be replaced.

Hello Beef38! The outer tub W10772617 is a manufacturer replacement part and may differ in appearance but is a functional equivalent to the original and will work on your model GHW9100LQ1. Thanks!

Hello Hankr. Pull the unit out and remove the back access panel on the unit. Then, turn the unit on and let it run. Check and see if the noise is coming from the pulley or the shocks. You should be able to determine this being behind the unit with that cover off the unit. Then you can determine if it is the bearings and spider assembly or the shocks.

Igottools2 for Model Number GHW9150PW0

I have the heavy banging sound on spin cycle along with the popular plastic scraps shedding in my wash as mentioned here already. But I also have a bad leak occurring at the front of the washer and a squeal coming from the inside rear when it transitions to rinse. Do I replace the whole tub assy and if so could you assist me in the correct parts I will need to complete this job? I realize parts of this issue has already been addressed but I would like to be sure. Additional recommendations will be of great value!! Thank You.

Waterman, Very Good deduction, Yes, you would most likely have a worn out tub bearing or even a damaged/defective trunion arm on the spin basket shaft (rare but possible) . You'd need to replace the rear outer tub and bearing assembly, if that's the case W10772617 Thanks and Good Luck

Hello Mark. No, if the front tub W10772612 is damaged, you will need to replace it and the rear tub assembly W10772617. If not, it can leak in the future. Hope this helps.
